Holy crap, that's a review of PHALANX? Perhaps he didn't read to the end where

. The religion on Ataegina is not Christianity, BTW.

haha it is!

thank you so much for adding this wonderful piece to the alien series. i'm a big fan of the alien rpg and i'd give an arm and a leg for a phalanx scenario, where you get to play a runner  ;D

Yes thank you Scott!

This is an excellent book, one we are lucky to have in this franchise. I've been a fan of this franchise for 30 years and Phalanx is now my favorite EU story. I thought The Cold Forge would stay my favorite alien novel but this has bumped it into 2nd place  :laugh:

Don't listen to reviews like that one on itunes, that person is obviously ignorant in the extreme.

P.s. Hopefully someday you write a sequel/prequel but I would love even a new story if you are writing it.

I have a whole history for Zachariah, and would love to do the story of how he came to be on Ataegina. That's probably not in the cards anytime soon, though, I've got projects stacked on projects.

Would be great! I really expect that story! ;D

So this book arrived in the mail.  Well, it is a page turner.

I like that it is under the Aliens imprint and not the Alien imprint.  I am just wondering why it is a bigger size than the other books.

Bought my Dad the book for Father's Day. He really enjoyed it and thought it was a fun take on the franchise.

This sounds so much as a comment someone would leave below YouTube video

I like it though

What can I say, my dad's the one who got me into the franchise's by showing me Alien and Predator when I was 9 (31 now). Plus he had all the comics which got me into the EU at the same time. So now I return the favor when new releases come out  :)

That's really cool.

The fact that there are people chanting this "Get woke, go broke" mantra weirds me out so much. :-X
...

It tells me that goose-schtepping morons like [themshelves] should try reading books instead of bearning them!

Oh mah gerd. I want this story to 'BE' soooo much, it almost hurts a little.Please, oh, sacred mouse, embrace this deviant world and let these stories livvve!

So this arrived in the mail.  I'm actually rather enjoying it.

...and that means I'm leaving this thread until I finish the book.
